Blind Assessment

Evaluated as espresso. Complex, vibrant, richly nuanced. Toffee, pomegranate, dark chocolate, star jasmine, marjoram in aroma and small cup. Very viscous, syrupy-smooth mouthfeel; resonant, long, flavor-saturated finish. Integrated and harmonious in three parts milk, with pomegranate and dark chocolate framing deep suggestions of star jasmine.

Notes

Despite grower discontent, unclear government coffee policy and urban encroachment on prime coffee lands, the famed Kenya cooperatives continue to produce some of the world's most elegant and distinctive coffees. Green Stone Coffee is a woman-owned artisan roastery in Taipei, Taiwan founded in 2016 and specializing in sourcing distinctive coffees that express their individual terroirs.

Bottom Line

A single-origin Kenya espresso that has a trifecta of balanced fruit, chocolate, and spice-toned floral notes. Equally complex in the straight shot and in three parts milk.
